Chapter 114 The most handsome guy in the audience won three awards in a row!

"Hahahaha!!! This is making me laugh to death! This is so unfair!"

"I feel sorry for the female host, meeting Cheng Cheng, a living father."

“Before interviewing Cheng Cheng, the female host said: I have seen a lot in my life, what kind of weird interview subjects have I not seen?;

After interviewing Cheng Cheng, the female host said: I have never seen this before!

"Too funny, hahahaha, absolutely hilarious!"

"Who put this psychopath in there?"

"Schizophrenia scene."

“What an avant-garde mental state.”

"Cheng Cheng: Stop the host and torture him."

"I'd like to ask, is this considered a work-related injury? Hahaha!"

"The female host is really hardworking. Even after that, she's still thinking about going back for the interview. Aren't you afraid of being bitten by Cheng Cheng?"

"Hahahaha, I love it the most when I see Cheng Cheng going crazy and Wen Lian, Yan Gou'er, and Li Yang remain calm, hahaha!"

"'You are a bad dog' made me laugh to death. It's hard to imagine that this was said seriously by a male star."

"One second ago: I actually don't really want this award. The next second: Please give it to me, I really want it! Hahahaha, the Chinese entertainment industry cannot do without Cheng Cheng. Compared to other celebrities, they are too conventional, too timid, and dare not say anything that is even slightly controversial."

"That's right. If Cheng Cheng has a split self-will, then other stars have no self-will at all. They have turned themselves into commodities and dare not express anything."

"It turns out that all my best friends are my enemy friends!"

Netizens were laughing like idiots. Of course, in addition to laughing, some people were also discussing whether Cheng Cheng could win the award.

"I think it will definitely win, there is no suspense, the question now is how many it can win. Looking at the nominated awards, except for the fierce competition for Best Supporting Actor, no one is worthy of competing with "All or Nothing" for Best New Director, Directorial Debut, and Best New Actor."

"With a box office of 20 billion, other directors and actors have nothing to compete with! How can they compete? And although it was "All or Nothing" that was nominated, it is impossible for the organizers not to consider the impact of "A Little Thing Called First Love"."

"I told you, Cheng Cheng is killing it in these awards!"

-

The Golden Film Awards ceremony.

After the host and the award presenter exchanged a few jokes, they soon came to the formal award ceremony.

First of all, there are marginal awards, such as Best Feature Film Award, Best Small and Medium-Cost Feature Film Award, Best Documentary/Science and Education Film Award, Best Children's Film Award, Best Foreign Language Film Award, etc.

After these awards were presented, some more important individual awards came up.

The Best Director Award was won by Ma Qibin, the director of "War" which was released at the same time as "All or Nothing".

"War" had the worst box office performance, but it performed well in terms of word of mouth. It was not particularly surprising that Ma Qibin won this award.

It’s just that Lu Zhuofeng’s face looked a little ugly.

Later, the Best Photography Award was won by Lu Zhuofeng, which made Lu Zhuofeng's expression ease a lot.

It must be said that there is no problem with Lu Zhuofeng's camera performance, but his ability is weak in storytelling.

After that, there were some smaller awards, such as Best Opera Film Award, Best Art Award, Best Music Award, etc.

The order of awarding prizes is basically small prizes, big prizes, and small prizes, interspersed with each other.

Soon, it was time for the first award that All or Nothing was nominated for - Best New Actor.

Yan Gou'er was a little nervous. Wen Lian and Li Yang were comforting her and encouraging her in a low voice.

Cheng Cheng: "Would you like to pet my dog?"

Yan Gou'er: "I, I'll touch it later~"

"Then the Best New Actor Award at the 34th Tianxia Golden Film Awards goes to—"

The powerful voice of the award presenter was heard, and shots of Yan Gou'er and several other shortlisted actors appeared on the big screen.

The whole audience held their breath.

"Yan Gou'er!", the award presenter's voice fell.

There was a burst of warm applause from the audience.

The award presenter announced loudly again: "Congratulations to Yan Gou'er!"

The host's high-pitched voice rang out: "Please invite Yan Gou'er to the stage to receive the award."

Yan Gou'er felt like her heart was about to jump out at this moment. The intense excitement and joy intertwined together made her almost speechless. She subconsciously looked at Cheng Cheng beside her, seeming a little bit unbelievable.

Cheng Cheng smiled and said to her, "It's yours, go on stage."

Yan Gou'er stood up excitedly and saw herself on the big screen and the stars applauding her. She first bent down to hug Cheng Cheng, and then shook hands with Wen Lian and Li Yang respectively.

Wen Lian's eyes were full of envy and blessings, and she said, "Xiao Gou'er, I envy you so much!"

Li Yang smiled and said, "Well-deserved!"

When Yan Gou'er walked onto the stage, the host passionately read out the judges' comments:
"Comments from the jury: Yan Gou'er's portrayal of Song Yu's inner world is accurate and precise. Her performance is restrained and moving. She uses the right sense of proportion to perform in a spiritual style. As a new actor, she has demonstrated extremely high professionalism and talent. Her outstanding performance has not only won the love and recognition of the audience, but also injected new vitality and hope into the entire film industry. She is awarded the Best New Actor Award!"

Yan Gouer took the trophy and certificate and stood on the stage.

At this moment, she was covered in starlight and was dazzlingly beautiful.

Host: "Please invite the winner to give a speech."

Yan Gou'er's cold eyes were a little flustered at first, but soon became firm:

"I am the actor Yan Gou'er."

“First of all, I would like to thank the jury for their recognition and affirmation of me. I feel very honored and excited to be awarded this award.”

"At the same time." She paused, found Cheng Cheng in the audience, and continued:

"I also want to thank my director." The camera panned over and Cheng Cheng's face appeared on the big screen. "Before Director Cheng hired me, I was just an ordinary student at Teikyo Film Academy who had no roles to play."

"It was Director Cheng who gave me this precious opportunity. He not only allowed me to appear in his movie and be known by everyone, but also let me know that my choice was not wrong. He allowed me to win this award with a clear conscience!"

“So I’m very grateful to him!”

“And all the main creators of ‘All or Nothing’, Sister Wen Lian, Brother Li Yang, and Director Dao, Brother Qi Hao, and Brother Meng Cai who are not here, they are all my mentors and friends.”

"I also want to thank myself for being so eager to film."

“Actually, when I was filming this drama, I really didn’t want to wrap it up and go back to the state of having no dramas to shoot. But later I realized that I actually had a lot of dramas to shoot.” She rarely showed a mischievous and proud expression.

The actresses in the audience became more and more envious and jealous.

"Because I have a lot of dramas to shoot, I will continue to improve my acting skills and try not to be left far behind by my director."

Amidst applause and envious gazes, Yan Gouer walked off the stage and returned to his seat.

Wen Lian said: "Quick, let me see the trophy, I haven't seen it yet~"

On the stage, the voices of the host and award presenter sounded again.

Yan Gou'er whispered, "Thank you, Director Cheng."

Cheng Cheng half-jokingly said, "That's nothing. Help me win a Best Actress award later."

Yan Gou'er nodded his head seriously and said firmly:
"Yeah, I'll try my best to win a Best Actress Award."

Cheng Cheng looked at her for a long time and said with a smile: "Little Gou'er, you are drifting~"

While they were chatting, the highlight of the night, the Best Actor Award, was presented. The winner was Ji Qi, the leading actor of "Glorious Times".

The audience burst into deafening applause.

Lu Zhuofeng really wants to give Ji Qi a thumbs up. Without Ji Qi, Lu Zhuofeng will not be able to save his face tonight.

Moreover, Ji Qi performed at the level of 9 points in a script with a score of 7. He definitely has real ability. This award is well deserved.

Next, it was finally time for the first award that Cheng Cheng was nominated for - the Best Directorial Debut Award.

"The 34th Tianxia Film Golden Film Award for Best Directorial Debut is awarded to Cheng Cheng for All or Nothing."

"Please invite Director Cheng Cheng to come on stage to receive the award."

"Comments from the jury: Cheng Cheng has a personalized expression of the major theme of anti-fraud, and the story's narrative rhythm is well controlled, with a smooth transition. He is awarded the Best Director Debut Award."

Yan Gou'er said in surprise: "Director Cheng, you won the award!"

Li Yang: "Director Cheng is awesome!"

Wen Lian: "Director Cheng, I'm proud of you!"

Cheng Cheng stood up and laughed three times towards the sky, showing no sign of reserve or modesty after winning the award.

He took off his suit, draped it over his shoulders, and walked towards the stage in slow motion, each step being extremely slow.

The smile on his face seemed frozen in time, and his waving movement was shockingly slow.

All the stars in the audience watched his "0.25x speed" performance and cursed him in their hearts as a "show-off" and a "lunatic".

The guests and host on the stage were also confused by Cheng Cheng's "0.25x speed" performance.

Originally, the two wanted to wait a while, but Cheng Cheng ended up walking for two or three minutes, and only walked one-third of the distance that could be walked in a few tens of seconds.

Every single one of them, whether they were the highly respected fifth-generation directors, or the sixth-generation independent directors who had won the three major Europa Awards, or movie kings and queens, national first-class actors, big stars born after 85, or small stars born after 00, were left sitting in their seats by Cheng Cheng.

If it were an ordinary person, being stared at by so many eyes would have made him feel uncomfortable or even terrified. But Cheng Cheng was not affected at all, and he even said hello to Lu Zhuofeng.

Zhao Wenliang: "Big idiot!"

Lu Zhuofeng waved his hand: "Don't say that."

He looked at Cheng Cheng with a smile in his eyes:
"Wenliang, actually I thought about it last night. Actually there is no need for us to go against him. Look, isn't it fun to have him have an attack? Especially when it doesn't involve us?"

Zhao Wenliang looked at the smile in Lu Zhuofeng's eyes and suddenly felt uncomfortable.

His Zhuo Feng was not like this before.

——"Director Cheng, can you walk faster?" On the stage, the female host finally couldn't help but urge.

The award presenter also smiled apologetically and urged, "Director Cheng, I'm really sorry, but we are indeed a bit pressed for time. Could you please speed up a little bit, please?"

Cheng Cheng finally walked onto the stage, and the audience below was getting impatient.

Cheng Cheng took the trophy and certificate and said:

"First of all, for this award, I would like to thank——"

He stretched out his voice and everyone in the audience stared at him closely.

Cheng Cheng's voice fell: "I myself!"

“Thanks to my intelligence, courage and talent!”

The stars and award organizers in the audience were stunned.

"Secondly——" Cheng Cheng stretched out his voice again:
"I also want to thank myself! Thank you for my perseverance and for not fearing any danger."

Organizer: (╬◣д◢)
“Once again - I still want to thank myself, thank my passion and persistence.”

“Finally – I still want to thank myself and thank my humility.”

"I'm done speaking, thank you all."

The audience went crazy!

So it’s all thanks to yourself!!!

And in the end you want to thank you for your humility?
You have a shitty humility!
Backstage, the director of the Golden Film Awards stomped his feet in anger:

(σ;*Д*)σGet him out of here!
Wang Zengming didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The vice chairman frowned, "This guy is too presumptuous! How can an award-winning speech be all about thanking oneself? If we hadn't chosen him, would he be here to receive the award? He actually had the audacity to thank himself multiple times! This is disrespectful to everyone!"

Wang Zengming smiled and said, "Lao Ma, please be considerate of him. I think this is a good thing. Although he is a little out of line, his talent cannot be ignored. I think sometimes we should be more tolerant of young people. Geniuses have their own personalities, and only with personalities can they generate more creativity and inspiration. So, don't take him seriously. You know what his reputation is like."

Cheng Cheng returned to his seat with the trophy, smiling.

Next, awards were presented one after another, and Cheng Cheng subsequently won the Best Supporting Actor Award and Best New Director Award.

The losers were outraged: Why did we lose to this lunatic?

When he received the Best New Director Award, Cheng Cheng stood on the stage again and said:

"Everyone knows that I have established a company. In fact, our company is not only involved in movies, TV series, and novels, just like directors are not only movie directors and TV series directors. Similarly, I am also very proficient in variety shows, reality shows, evening parties, crosstalk, sketches, stage plays, and advertisements..."

This string of words made everyone present feel numb!
This guy is too good at bragging!
Cheng Cheng: "So I am advertising myself on the stage of the Golden Film Awards, and inviting investment from all walks of life. If anyone dares to hire me, wants to hire me, or can hire me, you can contact my company. Variety shows and programs are all possible."

“First come, first served!”

The awards ceremony ended and the dinner began.

Nominated for four awards, it won all four. Although it is not as good as the Best Cinematography and Best Actor awards of "The Best Actor" and the Best Director award of "War", "All or Nothing" is definitely one of the most dazzling crews tonight.

There is an endless stream of people coming to Cheng Cheng to toast, and actors keep risking their lives to show themselves in front of Cheng Cheng. Even though he is a psychopath, he is a hot director!
Not to mention anything else, even if you get bitten by him, you'll become famous!
This made it impossible for Wen Lian and Yan Gou'er to squeeze in next to Cheng Cheng.

However, there are quite a few people around them, and people often show their goodwill to them.

This is the current situation in the entertainment industry, like a monkey climbing a tree, looking up, you see only butts, looking down, you see only smiling faces.

Luo Wei is a female director born in the 70s in China. The style of her films is more literary and avant-garde.

Tonight, her film was nominated for three awards, but won nothing.

She walked up to Yan Gou'er holding a wine glass and extended her hand gracefully:

"Ms. Yan Gou'er, hello. Let me introduce myself. My name is Luo Wei. You can call me Sister Luo. I admire you very much. You are one of the few actresses in the entertainment industry who is very spiritual, full of cinematic and storytelling sense."

As she spoke, she looked Yan Gou'er up and down, with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

Yan Gou'er held her hand for a moment, then separated, saying:
"Hello, Director Luo."

Luo Wei chuckled and said:
"I really like your personality. Only those with personality can be called actors. Those without personality can become stars. Can we talk about it?"

Yan Gouer glanced at Cheng Cheng in the distance, and seeing that he might not be available for a while, he said:

"Sure, what do you want to talk about, Director Luo?"

Luo Wei noticed Yan Gou'er's look and said:
"Then let's talk about Cheng Cheng. You think Cheng Cheng is a very successful director, right?"

Yan Gou'er's eyes flashed with displeasure. Such an opening move often meant that there would be derogatory comments later. She asked back:

"Two movies worth 5 billion and four Golden Film Awards, isn't that considered a success?"

Luo Wei didn't expect Yan Gou'er to be so resistant. She smiled and said:

"Of course it counts. If it can make investors happy and get audiences to buy tickets to the cinema, then it can be considered a success."

"But movies are not just commodities, they are also an art form. In other words, art is the essence of movies. A true director should pursue higher artistic achievements, rather than just catering to the tastes of the market and the audience."

"There are many talented directors in the world, in Europe, Serbia, Spain, Japan, countless! They don't cater to the market, don't care about business, they are full of ideals and pursuits, full of idealism."

"Compared to them, Cheng Cheng may be a successful director, but he will never be a master."

Yan Gou'er shook her head. She didn't want to talk anymore.

"Director Luo, excuse me. In my heart, Director Cheng is a very successful director. You don't have to try to change my mind. I don't know those directors from Europe, Serbia, Spain, and Japan that you mentioned."

"Wait a minute!" Luo Wei stopped her, "Ms. Yan Gou'er, I want you to star in my movie!"

Yan Gou'er: "I'm sorry, I'm very busy."

"But don't you want to star in some female-themed movies?" Luo Wei asked, "No matter how good Cheng Cheng is, he is still a male director. He inevitably has some limitations of a male perspective. Only female directors can understand and present the plight and feelings of women."

Yan Gou'er suddenly got angry:

Where were you when I had no roles to play? Why didn't you ask me to act because I'm a woman?

Now you are using my identity as a woman to kidnap me?

Luo Wei didn't notice Yan Gou'er's expression. She continued talking:

“We are all women, and we should use our performances to convey women’s voices and power!
You have excellent conditions and looks. You should look for roles and works that can really challenge your acting skills and expression ability. I have a script here. If you act in my play, I guarantee that you can win an award at the three major European film festivals, not this worthless Golden Film Award!"

Yan Gou'er's tone had turned cold. She said:
“First of all, my current work schedule is already very full and I don’t have time to act in your movie.

Secondly, I am very unhappy about your words that belittled Director Cheng. How about your movie box office reaching 5 billion? If you are so talented, why didn't you get anything tonight?
Finally, Director Cheng is only 22 years old. How do you know that Director Cheng will only make commercial films in his life? I believe in Director Cheng. I just need to follow his footsteps. "

After saying that, Yan Gou'er turned and left, leaving Luo Wei standing there with an embarrassed look on her face.

-

Seeing that Xiao Gou'er looked a little unhappy after chatting with Luo Wei, Wen Lian quickly ended the conversation, walked over and asked:
"What did Luo Wei talk to you about?"

Yan Gouer said: "She wanted me to make her movie, and she also talked about feminism and other things."

Wen Lian showed an expression of as expected and said, "I knew it!"

Then she asked hurriedly, "You didn't agree to her, did you?"

Yan Gou'er shook his head: "No."

Wen Lian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Luckily you didn't. Luo Wei is already notorious in the circle."

Seeing Yan Gou'er's curious gaze, she continued:
"She started out in the Beijing circle in her early years, and got a few roles by showing off her body, then gradually became famous, and finally transformed herself into a director.

After becoming a director, she attracted investment and made several movies. Her movies were quite popular ten years ago. Because the domestic film industry was developing late, domestic audiences had not seen anything good at that time. She really fooled a lot of people with her large-scale, revealing and mystifying works.

But as the aesthetic taste of our domestic audiences improves, her movies are no longer good. The audience's aesthetic taste has improved, but hers has not.

What she is best at is ruining innocent girls for the audience to see. Do you know "Sapphire Lake"? She vowed to help Zhang Jingwen win awards abroad, but Zhang Jingwen was deceived. The large-scale nudity stunned the audience. It was basically no different from a Category III film.

As a result, the film only received one nomination abroad.

Zhang Jingwen's image suffered a devastating blow. It has been seven or eight years now, and she has not yet recovered, otherwise she would have become a top star.

In recent years, feminist ideas have been introduced from the West, and she has started to get involved in feminism again.

Don’t you think she’s funny?”

Wen Lian whispered, afraid that others would hear:

"She was a big fan of the Beijing circle in the early days and the public enemy of the wives of Beijing directors. Why is she talking about feminism here?
And this time she probably wanted to do something big with you. You just happened to be the most innocent young lady, so she wanted to get you on board and shoot some big scenes in the movie. By then, you'd be done for, but she'd be famous again. So you're lucky you didn't agree to her. She just wanted to use you."

Yan Gou'er felt a strong sense of disgust and aversion in her heart. She had never expected that such a person would exist in the entertainment industry.

"Anyway~" Wen Lian seemed to see what Yan Gou'er was thinking and concluded, "You have just entered the entertainment industry. There are so many evildoers in this industry. There are all kinds of dirty things and chaos. There are all kinds of things that can break your bottom line. You can only think of it, but you can see it."

Just then, Cheng Cheng came over and started chewing an apple with his mouth open.

While chewing, he muttered, "Why does this banana taste like apple?"

Wen Lian's beautiful eyes widened: This is an apple, okay! ! !

Yan Gou'er's lips curled up: It's still the familiar, reassuring feeling!
Cheng Cheng looked at them and asked, "What are you (chew chew) talking about (chew chew)?"

Wen Lian laughed and said, "We didn't talk about anything."

Yan Gou'er said: "Just talking about some celebrities present."

Both of them tacitly did not mention Luo Wei.

Because they knew that once they told it, Cheng Cheng would definitely go crazy at Luo Wei again, and then there would definitely be another unnecessary storm. The company has already offended many people, and there is no need to create more complications.

Cheng Cheng said: "Oh (chewing), so that's it!"

He suddenly looked at Luo Wei in the crowd and said, "But I saw she was chatting with you just now. Was she trying to steal my girl? Or did she say something bad about me?"

"Forget it~", Cheng Cheng moved and walked towards Luo Wei, "Who cares what she did, I'll go find something to do!"

The two girls were terrified and quickly stopped Cheng Cheng:

Director Cheng, don’t do that!
